“Enjoyed your ebook…it’s understandable why you’re an award-winning resume writer. Thanks for sharing your expertise” Jo (US-based professional resume writer).
“Gayle, your book is amazing! You’re so clever and the information is excellent!” Carolyn Broomfield, Professional Résumé Writer, Australia.
“I downloaded your resume e-book so I could speak intelligently about it when recommending it as a resource to candidates for CDI’s resume certification program. It’s really a fantastic tool and I will be singing its praises to candidates for a long time to come! Barbara Safani, (former) Director of Certifications, Career Directors International.
“I am so glad I purchased your book. It is a breath of fresh air from the other great resume books I have had over the years. I believe you have a nugget there!” Daisy Wright, Professional Resume Writer.
“Gayle, I wanted to give you an update on our progress. We applied all of your techniques to my wife Penny’s CV as well as mine, and I have to report we have been fairly stunned by the results. When we first started looking for jobs in Auckland using our newly constructed CVs, Penny was inundated with interview requests and eventually was offered a position managing a team of business analysts when all she initially expected to be offered was a senior analyst role. The recruiter in question had tried to find a suitable candidate for four months. When I started to apply for senior project manager roles my CV was rejected regularly. I subsequently received another interview to set up and manage a strategic program office, passed, and was then interviewed buy the MD and offered the position. This is pretty much a dream role for me. As a result we have both obtained positions we thought we were capable of but maybe in a couple of years with more experience. Our conclusion is that not only did your techniques help us construct a more effective CV but they also helped us to analyse our careers to date and to sell the achievements we had made during our interviews. By the way, many people here have commented on how well our CVs demonstrated our achievements. So thanks again for the help and you can be sure that I recommend you to everyone I know is looking for work. Best regards, Mark.”
“Gayle, Your book is wonderful! I think this is a really valuable tool; it’s easy and fun to read, and it’s loaded with deadly accurate information” Laurie Roy, Past President PRWRA
